Argh. That sucked!!! 95 felt way too heavy. Three reps and I racked it :([/quote]
Like I said last week or w/e, if you’ve been doing DBs for a long time(you made it sound like you’ve never done BB even) then your BB will be relatively weak because you have to adjust to the locked hand positions forcing different elbow/shoulder rotation. If you actually do it for a few weeks to get your mechanics down it should explode.

Yeah it sucked. Also unapproachable scowl was the fail for twenty four hour Friday night pickup gym. No one offers to spot me with the DBs.
I am the frownly face
Also I think I’m pretty tired. Working too much. Dieting.

LOL you really are the female version of me. We have very similar muscle shape through the shoulders and arms, same hate for BB bench, and both hate people at the gym.

I should look up the difference between BB Bench and PL Bench. Is it just the back arch? Other than that, I share in the hatred of people at the gym. Very much so.

When I say BB bench, I mean BB=barbell.
But to answer your question the difference is bodybuilding bench’s purpose is to make your check bigger, while a powerlifting bench’s purpose is to move the most weight humanly possible from point a to point b.
There is form and execution differences, but the main purpose of performing the lift is different.
Thanks y’all… the WoWo avi will prolly be short lived. Asked my coach to make me look like Adam Hughes Wonder Wo,an (pic for reference). After making sure I know she is a DRAWING he said he’ll try
The outfit is some hilarious pajamas a roomate got for me years ago. Put em on for the lulz put up the avi to keep my goals in my mind.
Hallowed, your progress is really amazing, even if your avi pic is blurry as fuck. Clearly your waist has shrunk, your delt/pec/bicep tie-in is delineated nicely. The dark hair, the abz showing out, THIS is how Saturday’s should start out !
Jedi Fap Master Kerley - yes you will see the beach douchebags coming out, but also the hotties too. You must see the yin and the yang. My gym is currently accumulating Vixen quality tail, loaded with implants lacking bras, see-thru tank tops and hard nipples, boy shorts, pony tails, French braids… I will gladly put up with the douchbag infestation, I have plenty other to distract me.

This is why the NBC show didn’t get picked up. The execs and creators STILL don’t get it. Wonder Woman is not some malnourished model-esque chick. But a visibly strong, powerful Amazon! You fit this bill much better than the actress they cast.

I must be a complete dick, then, because unless these damn-near-nekkid chicks are doing what I do with the requisite intensity, they don’t exist in my world. They are treated just like the dudes. In. My. Way.

There aren’t a lot of women walking around with implants to begin with but if the gym was full of them walking around with hardly any clothes or bras I’d be annoyed and go somewhere else. The gym I went to was like that in the late 80’s early 90’s when I went once and didn’t go back because it was like a stripper bar. No thanks.
Masch that Vampirella is Adam Hughes drawing also! He just nails the epic physique on these women… lin.da carter wasn’t built but at least she wasn’t a frakking waif. I don’t know if a woman can naturally attain an AH! Drawing body but shit its something to go for!
